Weapons(Revision 1377)

The world of Defiance is a mix of human and multiple alien races which means a broad array of weapons ranging from standard slug-throwing pistols and shotguns to various alien bio and energy weapons.

Weapons have a number of unique statistics, including rate of fire, reload speed, and damage per round. Many Weapons may be fitted with Modifications to improve their performance. Weapon effectiveness is also augmented by Skills.

Weapons of the same name may have different characteristics based on their rarity. While all Weapons of the same name have the same base statistics, rare versions of a particular weapon may include more Modification slots, peripheral damage effects like Fire or Radiation, or inherent special bonuses.
